is it weird that the clothes size mattered more to me than the number did

genuine question cpap pressure got turned down last week, has that happened for anyone
what non scale thing surprised you most
the stairs thing yeah
no side effects at all is a legitimate report and it belongs here as much as the hard ones do
repeat sleep study came back better, has anyone else moved out of the range they were in
brilliant a1c
my knees stopped hurting around 10 down and i had assumed that was permanent damage
my milestone was tying my shoes sitting upright. it is not an endpoint in any trial
keep going
ok so the win i did not expect was sleeping through the night. i had forgotten that was available
thats not showing off
i overclaimed early on in here, got gently corrected, and i deserved it
good bp move
thats a big drop
size 22 to size 14 over about eighteen months. sizes are not consistent between shops so i only use the one shop
blood pressure went from 148 over 94 to 124 over 78 across about a year and my gp took me off one of the two tablets
*Medutest not the other one
i keep a pair of jeans from 2015 in the wardrobe as a measuring device and it is the only measurement i trust
[edited]thats brilliant
how long did it take before you believed it was actually working
12 down in 17 months and honestly the stairs were the bit that got me, not the scale
months not weeks
i measure my waist as well because it kept moving through two separate stalls
the boring version is the useful one. slow, uneventful, still going
i nearly quit too
half a stone in 33 weeks sounds slow written down and felt enormous while it was happening
ok so is there a point where you stop weighing daily
is it bad form to say i havent had a single side effect
i celebrated by buying a coat that fits. deliberately not food, which took some thinking about, take that with a pinch of salt
the milestone that mattered was fitting an aeroplane seat without the extender, and i was embarrassed by how much
my wedding ring fits again after 8 months, does anyone else measure things that arent weight
